Uruguay and Brazil both lost today, so it will be France and Belgium as two of the final four, and the winners of England/Sweden and Russia/Croatia as the other two.
Amazing that even with an all European Final 4, there is no Italy, no Germany and no Netherlands in it. Not to mention no Spain and no Portugal, though those teams did make the Round of 16.

Neymar might also do a little soul searching. His reputation preceded him on a number of potential fouls. Plus wasnt it nice to watch him repeatedly bounce back up off the pitch and get on with it because down 2-0 there was no time for theatrics that the ref wasnt going to buy into anyway.

(6,261 posts)He did not have a bad game today to be fair, but he should've scored at least one.

(3,622 posts)He was clear on two occasions.
In the end if you can draw defenders so that others can score it really doesn't matter in the end.
Pickford was MOTM for me.
Next up Croatia or Russia.
On paper Croatia look stronger but this has been a wild World Cup.
